Belaid,

GDAL uses various interpolation/resampling algorithms like nearest
neighbour, bilinear, cubic, cubic spline and lanczos. However, I think
these may not be what you are looking for.

Computing the overlap of pixels of two images should not be a complex
process. You may find some ideas with anti-aliasing techniques.
